Nanda Collection (なんだこれくしょん Nandakorekushon, lit. "What's this collection") is the second full-length studio album by Japanese recording artist Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, release on June 26, 2013, by Warner Music Japan. The album debuted at number one in the Oricon Weekly Albums Chart, becoming the first chart topper release of Kyary's career as well as the first Yasutaka Nakata-produced album to do so since Perfume's JPN in 2011.
The title of the album is an invented portmanteau of the expression "nanda kore" (なんだこれ), meaning "what's this?" in Japanese, and "collection" (これくしょん korekushon). The album was preceded by the release of the singles "Fashion Monster", "Kimi ni 100 Percent", "Furisodation", "Ninja Re Bang Bang" and "Invader Invader", which have all peaked within the top five of the Billboard Japan Hot 100.
The two songs on the album, "Kurakura" (くらくら) and "Noriko to Norio" (のりことのりお) were used in commercials for KFC's Krushers and the mobile phone company au, respectively.
The album was announced on May 23, 2013, in two editions: a regular edition and a limited edition which comes with a bonus DVD containing the music videos for the lead singles. Two cover arts for the album were revealed on the same day. The regular edition cover is a "couple" shot of Pamyu Pamyu with a puppet styled after her, while the limited edition cover shows her covered in peacock feathers. Pamyu Pamyu commented, "[...] It would make so happy if the picture for the limited edition made you mutter, 'What the!?'"
